Energy Services
Foundation installation is the cornerstone of a ground-mount solar project. JDS Consulting supports foundation design, installation, reviews, maintenance and remediation based on site-specific conditions. The results are efficient and cost-effective solutions that bridge the gap between geotechnical engineering and solar technology.
Pile Installation Services
We provide pile-installation services that deliver unbeatable value for every project, small or large. With more than ten years of solar experience and foundation expertise, our operators provide efficient service, excellent quality control and a smooth transition into mechanical installation. By using our own pile drivers, we can better control cost and schedule, and offer a greater understanding of how projects are installed.
Geotechnical and Installation Consulting
Our solar professionals are soil experts and excel at interpreting geotechnical data for practical application on solar sites. This enables us to optimize design recommendations and adapt quickly during construction. Our team has worked in conditions ranging from coastal plains to glacial plains, from desert-caliche soils to island-coral soils. This vast experience informs our recommendations and brings value to every site. All services are backed by fully engineered stamping capabilities in each state.
